    Hell no. Talented guy but come on.

    People need to stop playing the Gatti card here too. Shouldn't be basing HoF eligibility on the outliers.

      Zab was a champion multiple times and on top of that he was also a unified undisputed champion, not many fighters can say that. i feel like some of you guys are letting his most recent fights cloud your judgement.

        NO, Judah was good at one point but not great.
        Gatti got in because he was murdered, but if not he had a shot of getting in because of numerous wars, fight of the year awards, winning with cuts, swollen eyes, broken hands, surviving knockdowns and last but certainly not least his memorable come from behind knockout victories.

          No, I don't think so his biggest win is against Cory Spinks. He beat Matthysse on the score cards but it could have gone either way. I thought Matthysse win that fight to be honest.

            The thing is, there are some ppl in the HOF that are just there because of their impact on boxing, not really how good they were.

            Hell, you have ppl who have nothing to do with pro boxing like Sly Stalone in the HOF just cuz of Rocky.

              He lost all of his big fights.

              If he beat Cotto, Tszyu, Floyd, Khan or Garcia he would have a strong case.

                Pretty much Zab's only chance.

                  But we shouldn't just keep letting them in due to the low standards.
                  I'm in total agreement. I hope they don't let Judah in because he doesn't belong there. It's bad enough as it is.

                    Ok.

                    So judah's best win is the stoppage on Corey Spinks (both fights were good. Actually they were great fights and showed the rich talent both guys had.) After that is ****in Demarcus Corley, after that ****in Matthysee and most people thought he deserved to lose that.

                    Then comes his winning a couple rounds against Danny G, the Tszyu fight which took his 0, his loss to Clottey which should've never went to the cards, screaming about Cotto cheating to his dad on the stool, his winning rounds 1,2,3 & 5 against floyd then just losing it, rolling on the ground and getting counted out against Khan and losing to a way past-it paulie malinaggi.

                    Zab Judah isn't a Hall of Famer.
